Do you require your husband/wife to always ask your permission every time he goes out with friends esp when an ex-gf is in that circle too?

As long as we are aware of who we are going out with we're both ok. Have come to a point where this is something we trust each other with

I wouldn't require it, but I am hoping he will take the initiative of informing me as a sign of respect and transparency.

Yes. Because i'm his wife and should know his whereabouts. Also, for peace of mind.

thanks

For the sake of transparency, Yes I would say.

Yes its good to tell him and trust is needed
